Rubber Room Remodel and Another in the Cowboy Series!
Good Monday morning! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I spent Saturday and Sunday moving into the new rubber room. I’ve decided to wait to show you pictures until I’m finished moving in. I’ve got just a few things to finish up today, and then I’m done! Well, probably not done, because I haven’t worked in there yet and you know how that is. I’ll probably sit down to stamp and realize that I’ve got something in the wrong place and will need to move it. As I carried stuff down, I’ve tried to put it in the place where I think it needs to be. I already made on move yesterday and now find myself without a desperately needed cabinet. Luckily my mother was here at the time, and she had a great idea. After she left, I almost couldn’t stop myself to run out and buy this cabinet on sale at Target. Lance had been out running errands and I did try to call him to pick it up for me, but of course, he never answered his cell phone. As we were talking about what I wanted, my mother called. She has a cabinet in the garage at the river house that was my grandfather’s. She is going to let me have it – WOO HOO! Now I just have to get Kate and Will to bring it down to me.
I need to go out today, run a few errands and pick up a few small things that I need to finish up. In the meantime, I do have another Lizzie Anne Cowboy card to share with you. Another in the Cowboy Series – can you stand it?
Once again, the cowboy is holding something in this hand. This time it is the kite from the High Hellos set. The images were colored with Copic Markers and then the edges of everything were sponged with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The background paper and the image were sewn on the sewing machine just to add a little something to the card. The sentiment is from Just Words II.

Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Solar White, SU Cool Carribean and Chocolate Chip, DCWV Retro Print Mat Stack
Ink: Adirondack Pitch Black and Espresso, Tim Holtz Vintage Photo Distress Ink
